What else can you do to make the onboarding process easier?

Provide for each newbie welcome treats

Virtual goodies, such as gift cards or online vouchers, would make them feel just as welcome as a traditional ‘welcome basket’. In case you still want to maintain the custom of gift wrapping, you can always choose to deliver a ‘welcome box’ to your new employee’s doorstep.

Assign your new employee a virtual mentor

This person should be from the same department as the new employee, and their task is to give the new team member valuable advice, feedback, and assistance whenever necessary.

Pair them up with a work buddy

Pairing them up with a friendly face could be a great stepping stone to developing a trusting atmosphere. A work buddy system implies that new employees are paired with a coworker who is their first point of casual contact during the first couple of months.
